It's been the Monday show.
Yeah, let us know what y'all think of this lineup and what we need to be rocking with because we love y'all.
Yes, and we will be back next Monday.
Watch.
In Oregon, a person charged with a crime but considered too mentally ill to aid with their own defense is often sent to the Oregon State Hospital for treatment.
A new order from a federal judge will limit that option to the most serious cases, felonies like assault, murder and rape.
It means defendants facing less severe charges now have fewer options and they could be released from custody before getting treatment.
If there's somebody who is mentally unstable and needs the help and the assistance of the state hospital.
We should be giving that to them.
Kevin Cameron is a Marion County Commissioner.
The state hospital is in his district.
He's one of multiple county leaders who are critical of the judge's ruling.
That causes a public safety problem.
It's inhumane to be sending people out on the street that don't belong out there.
The order also restricts extensions of a patient's stay at the state hospital, meaning violent offenders could be released after six months.
The goal?
Get Oregon back in compliance with the federal order requiring mentally ill defendants to move from a jail to the state hospital within seven days.
It's been a decades long problem in Oregon.
The state was found in contempt last year.
Oregon has since racked up more than $3.7 million in fines due to noncompliance.
